Would you prefer to live on an extremely remote active British volcano or the Hampshire coast? I'm deep in the weeds making a new series about a different British remote island, but this piqued my interest and provided welcome distraction. jonesluke.substack.com/p/aba…

More reason to listen... beyond just me saying "please it is very good and took a long time to make". @ApplePodcasts have picked The Pitcairn Trials as one of the best shows of the year so far. You can listen here: audioalways.lnk.to/thepitcai…

With #RAJAR s out today...here is your quarterly reminder that linear radio is not linear television. Just under 50 million people are tuning into *live* radio every week. This is how that has changed in the last decade... (spot Covid)

Just finished the Pitcairn Trials - incredibly compelling podcast series on the mass sexual abuse prosecutions in 2004. Respectfully and masterfully told. Survivor Glenda is the heart of the narrative.
